HAPPY SPINE-TEK EPS

The Happy Spine-Tek is a performanceshortboard model built to give surfersthe freedom to easily go wherevertheir mind and ability takes them.

Low entryrocker and strategically placed forwardvolume allow The Happy Spine-Tek to paddle well,get up to speed quickly and performextremely well in the tube. To harness speed, the board’s refined rails andthinned out tail make for a highly responsiveboard that is also extremelyforgiving through critical maneuversand maintains a high level of hold no matterhow hard you turn.

Single concaveunder the front foot, transitioning intodouble between the fins, and flat offthe tail give the perfect combination ofspeed and control. Over the past twoyears Channel Islands Shaper Britt Merrick refined and tweaked thedesign thanks to a steady stream of team feedback by the likes of Zeke Lau,Lakey Peterson, Mikey February andConnor OLearywho have all sincebeen riding it on tour.

About Spine-Tek.

Engineered by the crew at Shapers Australia, The exclusive SPINE-TEK partnership allows Channel Islands to build boards that are livelier and more responsive. Like a spring, they load up on energy, provide pop, accelerate out of turns whilst holding speed down the line, and the spine keeps its flex pattern unlike timber which loses it over time.
